iAddressSize

[in] Size of the SOCKADDR structure used for the pSourceAddress, pQueryAddress, and pResponseAddress buffers.

dwFlags

[in] Set to 0 to query for a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) port. Otherwise, set to one of the following values.

DPNHQUERYADRESS_TCP

Query for a TCP port.

DPNHQUERYADRESS_CACHEFOUND

Cache the address if a mapping is found.

DPNHQUERYADRESS_CACHENOTFOUND

Cache the address if a mapping is not found.

DPNHQUERYADRESS_CHECKFORPRIVATEBUTUNMAPPED

Determine if an address is private when no specific mapping is found.
